Bunaken Sea Garden Dive Resort

We stayed here for 4 nights and had the Family Room with extra large bed and terrace above the restaurant. You have a fantastic view from this room! The spacious room is somewhat dated but still functions well. The adjoining bathroom, on the other hand, is in need of renovation, especially the rickety shower cabin where the water did not drain properly and the toilet did not flush properly. You have no hot water and no air conditioning, but you do have a fan. There is no luxury, during our stay the room was not cleaned and the towels were not changed. The food is very basic, tasteless dry meat with lots of bones and overcooked fish, and there is little variety. In the morning you receive 2 pancakes as standard. We asked for nasi goreng which we got, but we had to pay extra for an accompanying fried egg. This food is really substandard compared to the rest of Indonesia, "made without love" and it shows! The price-quality ratio is out of balance. However, what makes everything very worthwhile is the peace and quiet you find there (if the air compressor of the diving tank filling station is not turned on) and especially the incredibly beautiful coral reef on your doorstep. This coral reef is a top location for snorkelers and divers, one of the most beautiful on Bunaken and easy to reach at both low and high tide. We enjoyed the spectacular underwater world every day and had a great time because of that.

This is the affordable place with a family atmosphere formerly available at another resort I frequented. Diving, snorkeling, and the nearby Bunaken Café for relaxing and live music in the evening make this an ideal place to make friends and have fun. English is the medium here, making everyone feel welcome.

Charming hotel with sea view bungalows, charismatic and adorable owner. Snorkeling spot opposite with an impressive wall, multiple fish, turtles, sharks and even dugongs. …

The room has no AC, it is very hot to sleep at night, the bathroom water is very small, there is no hot water, this is not a resort but a homestay

Stayed there for 4 nights, found it by chance. It was low season so we were alone there most of the time. Food was very okay and food requests were also taken into account. The room was equipped with a fan and cooler and was very airy due to the many windows 👍 you can go into the sea directly from the property, be careful not to expect a classic bathing beach! It's a path through the mangroves but the good thing is that after 200 meters a reef edge drops steeply into the sea, very good snorkeling opportunities!!Corals, starfish, schools of fish, turtles, saw everything myself. Scuba diving can also be organized on request and is also recommended. Staff attentive but not intrusive.

I don't really recommend it, the view is just normal, but it's covered in mangrove trees, there's nothing to see, the hut is really dusty, it's already rotten. richer than an abandoned resort.

One of the worst hotels we have stayed in Indonesia.First of all, the owners are really rude and unpleasant. It almost seems like we were annoying, like we were a nuisance. Also - the bathroom had a broken toilet bowl- the terrible food- the very dirty restaurant with minimal variety, poor quality food- ants and bread stuck in the toaster for who knows how long- it is not suitable for children as there is no beach- the power went out several times- the owners are almost impossible to find and very grumpy- there was no daily cleaning in the rooms- we asked for a late check in and we were deniedReally bad experience

Wonderful stay and good diving facilities.

Bunaken Seagarden Resort is a great place to stay and to snorkel and dive with. The accommodation is super comfortabel and clean and the food, 3 times a day, is good! …

Had a really nice time here.
